  How can I configure my laptop to disconnect the current user (switch not only users) and force them to close all programs when the lid is closed, and then switch to sleep mode?

  There is no direct option for this, but you can create a batch file that has orders for logoff, then the command for the night and have that run the trigger of "Lock Workstation".

• A Wi - Fi connection turns off when the lid closes, turns on when the lid opens

  On my Dell Latitude E6510 the Wi - Fi turns itself off when I close the lid and turn on automatically come back when I open the lid.

  I have power management in Win7 set to do NOTHING when I close the lid while operating on current alternative, but by closing the lid again stop Wi - Fi.

  I'd rather have stay wi - fit with the lid closed so that the laptop will remain on my home network, but I can't find any setting make the wi - fi turned on.

  Am I missing something or is just something that Latitude always does - none of my previous laptop Dell ever did that.

  Thanks for the suggestion, but I already tried.

  However, in case someone else has the same problem later and find this thread, I found a solution.  Turns out the problem be that I was using own software Dell to manage the adapter Wi - Fi. The Dell software has some settings but none with either power off Wi - Fi or by closing the lid.  When I went to let Windows manage the Wi - Fi adapter, the problem disappeared.

  Whenever my laptop reaches 10%, will switch to "standby" and won't do anything until I plug the charger. Is this normal? Is it possible to change this?

• Satellite U - Vista starts when the lid is closed

  Hello

  The title says it all!

  My girlfriend showed me her cell phone yesterday. She manually stop it on the start menu, leave for a few minutes, close the lid, then watches in joy as the computer laptop Springs revive again.

  I checked and the judgment indeed makes a stop, not a hibernation or something like that. I also changed the lid closed to "nothing" action and "stop" and I tried various methods to stop this strange behavior. My only solution was to have vista recognize the lid close like a stop action and have this control by turning off the laptop. Unfortunately, my girlfriend is a woman of routine and like to manually turn off the laptop before closing the lid, so my solution is not a long-term one.

  One thing that I've seen is that she had managed to install Uniblue Registry Booster. I quickly removed it, but wonder if it could have changed his behaviour of the laptop? Surely the fact if boots up when it is turned off when the lid is closed could not be attributed to Vista or whatever it is that was done for her?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Can you please tell us what laptop you have exactly?

  I assume this has something to do with the alarm clock on the keyboard/LAN feature in the BIOS

• Laptop starts up when the lid is opened

  I spilled some water on the laptop. I used AC power with no battery attached. When this happens, I quickly pulled the plug. I knew that the warranty does not damage the water so I dissamble each component and put them in dry box for a week. Then I used alcohol to remove all stains left behind.

  After I got everything back up, the laptop starts fine when the lid is closed and hooked to an external monitor. Can I use any program withou any problem. But it wouldn't start when the cover is open. It was as if someone was holding down the power button to force the computer to turn off.

  My question is, how the laptop detects if the lid is open or closed? It is magnetic, or is it using a switch as a reed switch?

  my laptop is HP Pavilion SleekBook 14 14-B031TU with the motherboard: DA0U33MB6D0-698523-001.

  Kind regards

  Most newer laptops have a sensor (switch) magnetic in the cover of the screen bezel or the touchpad.

  You can test that by sliding a small magnet around the telescope cover touchpad area and/or.

• Vista on the XPS M1330 laptop lost wireless when the lid closed (using the external monitor)

  Hello

  I bought an external monitor/keyboard/mouse for my laptop XPS M1330 (connection of the monitor via a HDMI to DVI cable).  However as soon as the lid is closed the wireless network stops working - opening the lid immediately launches the application again.  A network through a physical cable connection works with the closing of the cover.  Note, the network remains connected (or at least is always intended to be connected) it has not sent or received no information, while the lid is closed.

  XPS M1330 laptop under Vista Home Premium SP1 - Wireless card is Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG running the latest drivers 11.5.0.32.

  Power options are obviously set to shut down the computer laptop shut down, goes to stand by, or go into hybernation when the lid is closed... it is set to 'status quo '.  The properties of the wireless card has the "Ad hoc power management" disabled and the "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" unchecked.

  When the cover is opened, the monitor takes the maximum size of the screen of the laptop, which goes against the objective set for the monitor in the first place.

  (As a side note, the laptop also refused to work with a wired via a network connection "homeplug" - even if a hub is placed between the laptop and the homeplug - and I refuse to run a cable between the router as the laptop will be used in another room of the router).

  Is there a solution to this, or is this a problem with Vista?  (Because if this is the case, it is yet another nail in the coffin - and it becomes difficult to find any more room for nails more!  Windows 7 is fast approaching!)

  See you soon,.

  Hi tom101449,

  ·          The WiFi was working fine earlier?

  ·          You did it all change hardware or software on your computer before this problem?

  Method 1

  If the problem occurs after you install the latest drivers Intel PRO / Wireless, you can restore the drivers for the card wireless to the previous version. For more information, see this link.

  Restore a driver with its previous version

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/restore-a-driver-to-its-previous-version

  Method 2

  When you connect to your wireless network, make sure that the option 'Save this network' is checked.

  In addition, right-click on the network > properties, then on the connection tab, check the box that says "connect automatically when this network is in range.

  Reference:

• Laptop will not go to sleep when the lid is closed

  Separated from this thread.

  Same problem here. My settings say that my Toshiba will sleep when the lid is closed, but half the time is not asleep and I can feel it's hot and turns on the fan. I am so frustrated with this new laptop and Windows 8.1. Looks like too many bugs in the software or something. More I am working on the new laptop the more problems that I find, like screen discoloration as well. The forums are useless. I do what they say, and the problem is the same. Forget the call from Toshiba. Needless. Nobody will help unless you pay them money to subscribe. What customer service?

  Hello

  Thanks for posting your concern here at the Microsoft Community forum. Let me help you with your concern.

  This problem may occur because of any change in power on your laptop options. If the default is set to hibernation and standby modes, your laptop goes to sleep when you close the lid, but then the Hibernate timer comes in and wake up your computer first and trying to Hibernate. He cannot go to Hibernate directly from mode 'sleep'. Go into the power settings and either disable hibernation or set the timer on a higher value.

  To apply the same setting to all plans:

  1. Open Power Options by pressing the Windows key + X, clicking Control Panel, click system and security, and then clicking Power Options.
  2. On the Select a power plan page, click choose the cover.
  3. On the page define power buttons and turn on password protection , next to when I close the lid, choose what you want your laptop to do, both when it is running on battery and when it's plugged in.
  4. Click on save changes.

  Tip: To save battery power and quickly resume working, select sleep. Sleep is a power saving state that allows a computer quickly resume the operation of full power (usually in seconds) when you want to start working again.

  To apply a setting to a specific regime:

  1. Open Power Options by pressing the Windows key + X, clicking Control Panel, click system and security, and then clicking Power Options.
  2. On the Select a power plan page, click change plan settings for the plan you want to change.
  3. On the change settings for the plan page, click change advanced power settings.
  4. Advanced settings tab, expand it cover and the Power button, action lid, choose what you want your mobile PC to do when you close the lid, for when it runs on battery and when it is plugged in, and then click OK.

  I hope this helps. If you need help with Windows, let us know and will be happy to help you.

• The screen of my laptop turns off when windows start. What is the cause and how can I fix it?

  Original title: computer failure

  the screen of my laptop turns off when windows start. What is the cause and how can I fix it. Thank you

  You have the screen image out to another monitor (one that is not plugged in fact). How you pass to the internal laptop display varies, but most cell phone companies make a combination of keys, such as Fn + F6 or something.  Looking for a symbol that looks like a monitor.  It is usually color coded and requires activation of a Fn key.

  Hello

  As far as I know the laptop to stand mode when the lid is closed!
  Please check your settings in Vista power options and turn off the lid closing option.

  In addition, I would recommend updating the BIOS and the driver of graphics if a newer version is available on the European driver Toshiba page.

  Best regards
